"Have been playing with my MagnaBoard. With the purchase of some inexpensive frame brackets I now have a way to accurately jig up box structures. I have also used them to jig up my Easy Built Helldiver to glue the wings on. Hoping to fly WW 2 combat for the first time this year. Keep those great models coming!" - Bob Bard
